Netanyahu is a nasty Zionist shit.
This isn't good for the Israelis or the Palestinians.

Hopefully he'll fuck up so badly - a la Bush - that someone sensible with a real mandate gets in next time.
Fuck Israel

There isn't any oil in Israel.

So much for being Gods chosen people. He gave them the only bit of the region without any oil in it.....

Surely the milk and honey compensates this fact?

I was referring more to their neighbors.  If Israel engaged in an all out war with the rest of the Middle East, they'd probably die, but they'd kill a lot of their neighbors with them.

Then again, if they engaged in an all out war, we'd probably be dumb enough to side with them.

Well, they, unlike most of the other ME countries, do not need to rely on oil to prosper.

They do rely on umpteen billions of dollars every year from the US to prosper.
Fuck Israel

But that's not oil now is it? Besides, I'd figure most of that money goes towards their military.

That's why the United Arab Emirates are one of the few intelligent countries in the ME. They know the oil they have will only last for a little while longer, so they're placing the money they get from it into tourism.

I'd say it's working!

Let's see...  Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Yemen, and Turkmenistan.  That's a lot of the Middle East.
